Influence of medium composition and physical factors on enhanced production of endoglucanase by locally isolated fungal strain in solid state fermentation.

Endoglucanase is one of the most important enzymes of the cellulase group.  Endoglucanase are involved in the catalytic hydrolysis of cellulose and plays a pivotal role in different sectors like pharmaceutical, textile, detergent, and food processing as well as paper and pulp industry. With consumers getting more and more aware of environmental issues, industries find enzymes as a better option over other chemical catalysts.
